support helps keep programs like ours on the air.rd program lost thousands of books after hurricane sandy last month. >> brown: finally tonight, the college football season is reaching a climax of rivalries and conference championship games and its basketball season is now underway. but much of the action in college sports these days is away from the field or the court, as schools change affiliations and leagues. in the last 18 months some 30 colleges have made moves. among the most prominent, the university of louisville's departure from the big east to join the atlantic coast conference or a.c.c. and two eastern schools headed to the big ten, traditionally a midwest-based conference: the university of maryland is leaving the a.c.c. and rutgers is departing from the big east. what's going on? sportswriter and author john feinstein joins me now. john, first of all, for the uninitiated, explain the role of these conferences traditionally. how do they work and how do they divide up the college world? >> well, jeff, conferences were designed initially to take schools that were together geogr

influenced by the debates, for example, or but last-minute breaking newsy vents like the hurricane sandy. but one thing that is important to point out is is we're going to see them in waves tonight. some of the things that they tell us early, we've got an early look that basically suggests that the economy, of course, is what drove people to the polls. it doesn't actually tell you who won. you can infer some of the things, the characteristics that are driving people to show up. >> brown: tell us a little bit more because we've got some of the early results. that first one backs up what we just heard from mark, right? it's still the economy. >> exactly. another thing that backs up what david and mark were just talking about is who is in more touch with people like you. 52% said that was president obama. chose obama. they were showing up at the polls. 44% chose governor romney in that sense. that could go to the advertising campaign that the president's team had really tried to say that mitt romney is not like you. i am more in touch with the middle tax. that goes to the tax increase issue

i thought sandy helped. i think the country was ready to look for an alternative. the numbers all showed that. they never saw the alternative in mitt romney. i think part of that was the auto bailout in ohio and the early ads. >> ifill: what does it say about mitt romney's future? he ran for president four years ago. didn't make it out of the primaries. ran for president this time. gritted it out and won the primary nomination. this time he doesn't win. does he have a future in politics? >> no. woodruff: i think his... no. woodruff: he said this was the last. >> i think he could be proud. the last six weeks of the campaign were really done well. he began to give really good speeches. i think he can be proud in general maybe not the whole campaign especially during the primary season. but i think he finished well. >> the republicans would nominate ronald reagan at the age of 69 which mitt ro romney will be in 2016 because he had been the leader of the movement within the party. he had been the leader, he put the face, the voice and really the spirit of the entire co
